There are not a lot of iconic shots unique to players in the NBA. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and the Skyhook comes to mind.

So does Dirk Nowitzki and the one-legged fadeaway jumper — a shot that gets big time treatment in the latest NBA playoff ad. You’ll see a lot of this one on your television during the conference finals, but we’re bringing you the preview courtesy the NBA.

Chris Webber nearly lost it when Stephen Curry connected on a one-legged jumper against the Spurs, and of course Kevin Durant has also taken them. Nowitzki’s accuracy is uncanny, especially for a 7 footer.

>”Shouldn’t the NBA focus on promoting guys that are currently in the playoffs? They can’t ride LeBron forever.”

No – this is all part of the NBA’s new ad campaign – dudes who beat Lebron in the playoffs.

Tim Duncan, Robert Horry and Bruce Bowen are all going to get their own 30-second spots. And Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett will need 90 seconds each. And you can’t cover Jason Terry’s mocking of Lebron & Wade in anything less than 2-minutes.
